Mitsuru's half afraid the Hariti beckoning her through the kitchen door is going to warn her of another crazy Minato causing trouble in the lobby. What she actually finds is worse, and she calls one of her more experienced demons to take over.
"Thanatos, come on." She can't bend properly, but she offers her hand to lead him away. This doesn't seem like something he'd want in public.
"You can tell me everything in the back room, okay?"
It hurts, seeing Thanatos in such a state. The demons continue closing the store around them, trying to make everything seem as normal as possible as Mitsuru leads him through the kitchen doors.
There's relative privacy in the office in the very back, where she leads him to the couch.

... Oh, no. We can feel our sister senses tingling. Hemera enters the shop around fifteen or so minutes later, trepidation keeping her from bothering him outright. After passing Hypnos earlier, she had a feeling what might have happened.
Something is off. She knows very little about their situation. Was it her right to intrude...?
... Of course it was. She was his sister. So she approaches him quietly, smiling her best, and simply gives him a warm hug, sending her powers of warmth and caring to him.
... Aww, Thanatoooos. If you weren't taller than her even when she was in her preferred older in appearance form, this would not be as odd looking to those demons nearby as it is. But, as things are, the shop is near closing and Hemera is not too happy as to light it up right now.
"... It will be okay, brother. Somehow, it will be okay." She pauses, running a hand over his head and petting his hair. Even she can frown sincerely, her eyes slightly dim, but burning like the coals of a slow-kept fire.
"I... I am not sure who I should be helping." She stops speaking, quietly to him, but doesn't stop embracing her brother. "... Or I wasn't. If there is anything I can do that is within my power to help you and your spouse, I shall do it. ... Even if that should mean fighting against mother and Hypnos."

You're...probably going to have to lead him there, since he's sobbing into your shoulder unabashedly. Good thing it's almost closing time, huh?
